To the tune of "Big Jim" by Jim Croce

CART is full of wankers, The IRL has its bums, CART's got a spokesman name of Mario Andretti and he's a car racing son of a gun. Yeah, He's old but fast still good at hauling' ass yet he's as stubborn as a country mule. He accepted a test, if you've seen a TV you know the rest, don't you know there are no old fools?

You don't temp the Racing God's fate, In a Crapwagon you don't strap in, You dont make a big deal out of Arrivederch, Then take Mike's car out for a spin.....

In '62 you had a son named Mike, and in his actions of late many fans took dislike. He was a racing champ out of the CART camp and he stabbed his fans in the back with a knife. Yeah, He pulled a Jane Fonda and cut a deal with Honda. Many think that was not very nice. Now we fans don't think its funny that some guys can be bought for money, Do you really think Tony is right?

You don't tempt the Racing Gods fate, In a Crapwagon you don't strap in, You flipped your butt off in the old Southchute, Your damn lucky all you busted was your chin...

Now Mario, Everyone knows on the track you were great. Please don't help Tony out at the gate. At sixty-three you might need a new hobby, You have nothing to prove to these nobodies. The only talk of IRL races these days, is of substitute drivers and cracked vertebra's. Michael's insane in asking this favor from you, and what's his DaDa supposed to do? For you to wow IRL fans, who in truth don't really care, Go back and be safe in Your retirement rocking chair

You don't temp the Racing God's fate, In a Crapwagon you don't strap in, you flipped your butt off in the old southcute, Your lucky all you busted was your chin....

Send Mario a copy of this. He'd love it! (I'd say send Mikey a copy but I don't know if anybody in his crowd can read.)
